Abstract
In this paper, the proportions of the Persepolis terrace, Iran, are examined. The “Sectio Aurea” can be applied five times in one series on the ground-plan marking all important points of the built structures. The meaning of this is discussed in connection to Venus as a planet and as a goddess.
